Jodi, Todd and Gina and your families....
We offer our sympathy to you at this time of grief. You have pleasant memories and know that your parents both loved all of you a lot. You probably don't remember who I am, but you do remember my parents, Herman and Martha Leichty from the North Leo Mennonite Church. We are your relatives even though we rarely see each other. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time of shock and sorrow.

Dear Jodi, Todd, and Gina,
Your dad was always so kind to us other kids at church. He always had such a great sense of humor and a love of life. I still remember when your dad drove us to singing engagements! We would sing at the top of our lungs together with your dad while driving. And also going to see the Oak Ridge Boys and other southern gospel groups with your folks. What fun that was for a little kid!
We will all miss your dad, but we look forward to having a heavenly music fest when we get all get there!!
Love and prayers, Sherie and Larry Strong
